The Grange Raffle quilt

Here it is so you can fully see it. Looks pretty good!

Another Raffle Quilt

This time it is for the Exeter Grange. My Thursday night (once a month) quilt group makes a quilt for the grange to raffle. This year all of us made a few 9 inch blocks to contribute. The resulting collection of blocks was difficult to tie together until we decided to go with a straight set sampler style quilt with cornerstones in the sashing.
I must admit that I was skeptical about the final outcome. Somehow I just could not visualize it. But now that it is together I am quite pleased with our decision. Makes me want to make one of my own! Yeah, right, like I need another potential future UFO!
I think I will just take lots of pictures of this one and buy a few raffle tickets. Maybe I can win it and if I don't, I will at least have the pictures to remind me of what we did.
Enjoy!

Finished!

The binding is finished on the raffle quilt.  Finally!  For some reason, this binding seemed to take forever.  But it is done and the deadline has been met.  Now to take the drive to Aunt Pat's house and deliver it.

The Third Corner

The third corner of what you ask?  Of the raffle quilt, of course.  I promised Aunt Pat that the quilt would be ready this week and it will be! But first the binding must be completed.  So when DH decided to go for a ride this afternoon, along came the raffle quilt.  I am now sewing the binding and getting ready to pass the third corner.  I KNOW it will be finished by Tuesday!

Sitting on the Deck....

On a Saturday afternoon, knitting a bit and sewing the binding on the Raffle Quilt. Not a bad way to spend the afternoon

The Raffle Quilt

The Raffle Quilt has returned from the longarm quilter.  Sharon has done a wonderful job as usual.  Now to finish the binding and send it along to Aunt Pat.
